A hayride wagon is going down a spooky country road at 15 m/s when a Scarecrow appears in the roadway. The man at the wheel of t

he tractor takes 2.5 seconds to react and applies the breaks at a -1.65 m/s/s coming to a stop. How far did the hayride move before coming to a stop?

Answer:

d = 68.18 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 15 m/s

Finally it comes to stop, v = 0

Acceleration, a = -1.65 m/s²

Time, t = 2.5 s

We need to find the distance covered by the hayride before coming to a stop. Let d is the distance covered. Using third equation of motion to find it :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{-(15)^2}{2\times -1.65}\\\\d=68.18\ m

So, the hayride will cover a distance of 68.18 m.

1)Calculate the mass of a girl that has a weight of 113 Newtons.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:We should know that weight = mass * gravity.

That is weight equals mass times gravity.

Gravity is a force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. It is directly proportional to product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Gravity is generally measured in terms of acceleration due to gravity, denoted as g. For Earth it is, 9.8 m/s². And for moon, it is about 1.62 m/s².

On Earth, your weight is 70 kg = W

W = mass x 9.8

70 = mass x 9.8

Your mass is 70/ 9.8

i.e approximately 7.14

Weight at the Moon, W' = 7.14 x 1.62

Hence, your weight on the surface of the moon is just 11.56 kg.

Congratulations, you've lost about 58.14 kilograms without any hard exercise. And you're as light as a Sweedish Vallhund! Cheers!

A bullet with a mass 2.25g is fired up into the air with a velocity of 187.5 m/s. What is the maximum height of the bullet
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1793.7m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of energy; the kinetic energy substended by the object equals the potential energy sustain by the object when it gets to its maximum position.

Now the kinetic energy; is

K.E = 1/2 × m × v2

Where m is mass

v is velocity

Hence.

K.E = 1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2

Now this should be same with the potential energy which is given as;

P.E = m× g× h

Where m is mass of object

g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity = 9.8m/S2

h is maximum height substain by the object.

Hence P.E = 2.25 × 9.8 × h

From the foregoing analysis of energy conversation it implies;

1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2 =2.25 × 9.8 × h

=> 1/2 × (187.5)^2 = 9.8 × h

=>1/2 × (187.5)^2 / 9.8 = h

=> 1793.69m = h

h= 1793.69m

h =1793.7m to 1 decimal place

The Earth orbits around the sun because the gravitational force that the sun
kotykmax [81]
<h3>Question -:</h3>

The Earth orbits around the sun because the gravitational force that the sun

exerts on the Earth:

O A. causes Earth's acceleration toward the sun.

O B. is very small because the sun is so far from the Earth.

O c. is smaller than the force the Earth exerts on the sun.

O D. pushes the Earth away from the sun.

<h3>Answer -:</h3>

O A. causes Earth's acceleration toward the sun.

if a spring has a spring constant of 2 N/m and it is stretched 5 cm, what is the force of the spring?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

0.1 N

Explanation:

Considering the relationship between force,

spring constant and extension as defined by Hook's law

The force F=xk as from Hooke's law where F is the force of the spring, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression. Substituting 2 N/m for k and 5cm which is equivalent to 0.05 m for extention x then the force will be

F=2*0.05=0.1 N
